The coverage is excellent, especially that part done in pictures. I saw the likenesses of two old friends of mine, Mayor Helmle and Ernest Briggs, In last week’s issue. Mrs. Brown, now deceased, and 1 had a mostly delightful four-year [1957-1961] sojourn in Burnsville. During that time an extensive building end renovation job at the Higgins Memorial United Methodist Church was begun and completed. I hope to get to Burnsville for a few hours at least, some time in the coming August Very truly yours. 0. Lester Brown Charlotte, N.C.

My golf hat’s off to Karen Dawson, Rosemarie Altemus and Harriet Wiess on winning last week’s event. There’s not too many great gals like them. Let’s get serious tho’ about these hot days. When there’s a combination of hot temperatures and little winds under a sunny sky, strenuous activities are inadvisable. When you do go golfing, everyone should remember a few rules-if ypu can, wear a hat—keep a wet towel with you, dip in in our cool river water, sure helps to cool you. Drink water every time you come to one of the many coolers on the golf course. If you can’t take salt tablets, then eat salty crackers or anything edible with salt, even peanuts! If anyone begins to feel over tired, a little dizzy, head for a shady place and rest. If you are not using an electric cart, stop anyone that is and have them get you back to the clubhouse as quickly as possible. Suffer ing from too much heat isn’t funny, this reporter knows! Hope everyone stays well and that soon the cool days will return, so more can enjoy golfing again. •* MENS LEAGUE NEWS Results: 6th week-#6 de feated #5 by B‘/i to l‘/i; #4 defeated #3 by 8 to 2.
